Now he has to play other peoples composition. For this he needs permission. It is not possible to obtain permission for very single song. So blanket music licenses are taken for particular numbers of songs that can be played for a particular time period. In that period, the songs can be played as many times as requested. Now if a DJ is playing the songs, he needs to have the license and the place where he is playing, like a club or a restaurant also needs the license. In this way
Music Composers also get their worth through royalty.
